Ex-Easter Island Head (in-the-round)
Institute of Contemporary Arts, SW1Y 5AH , [Venue Details]Ex-Easter Island Head are a UK-based experimental collective composing and performing music for solid body electric guitar, percussion and other instruments. For this exclusive performance, the group will perform in-the-round & using the venue's state-of-the-art d&b Soundscape system.
The group plays multiple electric guitars augmented through mechanical preparations and extended techniques, creating hypnotic performances rich in repetition, shimmering drones and melodic invention through purposefully limited means.
Their records and live performances have received significant critical acclaim from the likes of The Wire, Pitchfork, the Quietus and the New York Times. Favourably compared to the likes of Steve Reich, Glenn Branca and John Cage, the groups' music has been praised for its mixture of percussive drive, emotional warmth and playful experimentation. Their most recent album Norther was released by Rocket Recordings in May 2024, hitting the #1 spot of The Quietus' top 100 albums of the year.
"You must see this group. They are minimalist noise art but come on like entertainment. Absolutely captivating, classy, beautiful and sublime. No-one could fail to think this was amazing and brilliant" - Stewart Lee
Co-presented with Baba Yaga's Hut.
Supported by d&b audiotechnik.
